Delete this one. It was done by the RR which has been added recently.

@ Fangio Man: Oh, I'll change my verdict, then.

@Shaggy
No, no. It is correct. The submitter probably made a mistake while the submission of this time. In the first comment at the bottom, which is most likely from the submitter, the correct time is named.

Time should be corrected though.

It's only a fraction of a second off, but incorrect is incorrect.

Well, if the time was set by the RR, should not it be deleted?

That time was done by the 2013 RR-model with more power, not this 2011 X-Bow R with 300 hp. ;)

@Lij@s
Have you any source of that?

Huh, I've never heard X-Bow R was driven at the Nord.

I actually it looks too fast! I don't believe it's able to do that.

On a chilly, windy autumn afternoon Christopher Haase had just two laps to conjure up the most perfect lap on the asphalt of the Nordschleife. And he did it in the truest sense of the word. He was timed at 7:25.72 minutes in the second flying lap, an absolutely top time that is significantly faster than that of the latest super sports cars. Even so, Christopher Haase still sees plenty of potential for improvement. “We had a lot of wind and very little grip â€[quote] but we have to hold something back for next year, don’t we? I’m thrilled with the car. The Audi engine is also a stunner that offers any amount of torque. But the rest of the car is also great. The suspension works perfectly and you notice that the XBOW is lighter than most other cars when you go into every corner. This makes twice as much sense on the technically demanding Nordschleife! In any case the lap time is amazing. I think it shows how good the X-BOW really is because the Nordschleife doesn’t allow for any random good lap times. Here its always very tough, whenever you’re here!â€
